Uno u didn't really give constructive opinions on your thoughts about skating!

I think both BMX and Skating are very cool cause of the adrenalin rush and it's very attractive. And it's good like every other sport for the human body.

... and BMX'ing is what, exactly? Moving pedals with your feet and occasionally twisting the handlebars.

He's saying that he uses the word gay instead of stupid. If you read between the lines, he's calling himself an ignorant tosser.

And Uno, I never bothered learning how to ride a bike so you'd have a hell of a time seeing me do that. The only place I'd flip-whip a bike is around your head.

Sport is just a whole load of timed muscle movement and chemical reaction. That said, BMX is the most boring to watch of all the extreme sports.

Constructive criticism: - Get rid of 1 wheel and voila - UMX...unicycles!!! Also get more monkeys involved in the sport

40 foot jumps with astep down landing, mkay? mkay..

Well put. I agree BMX'ing is okay but i like skating more

Lets see you do a flip whip.

Okay, I know what that is and i personally do not think you can do one.

The only place I'd flip-whip a bike is around your head.

LMFAO ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

I know a bit about biking and alot about skateboarding, and I know Uno, that you cannot do a flip-whip. Have you even attempted skateboarding? Its not as easy as you'd think. Biking is easier. i tried learing how to bike and within a week I could do no footers. Its not all that hard

As to your last post, youve got a stepdown tranny to land on, takes most of the impact away. Try doing a 9 foot drop to flat on a skateboard.

Uno
09-02-2004, 07:55 PM
No footers? omg that's simple.. Did I say I could do a Flip-Whip? No, I can do a 360 turndown late truckdriver though.
Biking easier my ass..

On a video game maybe....

biking is easier, anyone can just get on a bike and ride off a jump.

My friend only started biking like, 6 months ago and he can already aboobaka a 10 ft quarter pipe, no foot can-can our funbox, and flatland 360 tiretaps, not to mention 180-to-rollbacks off of anything. It only took him 2 days to learn a 270 to fakie over a hip into a bowl, whereas just learning a kickflip can take weeks

No, Not on avideo game, I took me 2 years to dial it, So yeah, I've been riding for 7 years, You can keep saying it's easy if you want, Also, It's abubaka

Command3r Keen
09-03-2004, 10:30 PM
lol. Not really. Think of the biking equivalent to a skateboarding blunt-to-fakie.
An abubaka is basically where the biker rides up and can either bunnyhop or just ride up onto a ledge or lip of somesort and stall the back wheel on it, then either just let themselves roll backwards or bunnyhop back and roll fakie. To straighten themselves out they either do a roll back or half cab 180 to get going normally again

BMXing can be extreme if u know what ur doing with your BMX. I've seen a lot of GREAT tricks on EuroSport n DSF (Deutsche Sport Fernsehen) and on some festivals here in Croatia. It can be extreme.. the problem is that Uno said everything else sucks and BMXing is the best and was spitting on everyone elses opinion.

Scarface
09-04-2004, 11:40 PM
I dont call doing tricks extreme either.

deity
09-04-2004, 11:58 PM
hmm y not if they're extreme.
I have lived enough and seen enough to be able to say what's extreme and what's not so extreme. Maybe you haven't seen the right tricks/jumps. IMO: it's extreme for more than one reason.. it's fun, competitive, nice to see and - dangerous. Serious injuries can occur while BMXing so isn't that extreme?

wait a sec.. inline skating is an extreme sport, skating is an extreme sport.. and BMXing isn't??
skiing is more extreme than others.. but BMXing or skating isn't basketball or soccer.. any sport involving higher velocities is extreme.

that makes sense.. but I still think of them as extreme cause they're unusual and they are cool sports.. they blend fine with today's concept of what's cool..
extreme doesn't have to be only dangerous right?

Every sport is extreme... If u class it like that! Even baseball is extreme cuz if u get hit by that ball in the face and it destroys ur mouth and nose and you can't breath.... DEATH...

I snowboard and it ain't extreme... Depends what u do... If u do jackass sorta things by jumping off mountains into o ditch, then yes otherwise, it's like any sport!

do you watch the x-games? A half pipe with 12 foot walls is a fairly big ramp, especially when you are flying 10 feet above it. Being 22 feet above the ground and still doing tricks in midair is extreme. Falling from 22 feet in the air does more than graze your knee or break your wrists. Try watching a bails section of a skateboarding video and tell me you cant hurt yourself. God, watch the episode of real tv where the skateboarder snaps the bone in his thigh in like, 3 place, or read a section of thrasher that posts people injuries and see a guys ankle completely separated from the rest of his leg

Flying is dangerous and people suffer horrific injuries, doesn't mean its extreme. The only reason its considered extreme is because kids think they invented it and believe they know how risky it is. Jumping off a cliff face without a parachute is extreme, anything else pales in comparison.

No but you can break your neck and be in a wheel chair the rest of your life .... playiing rugby.

Face it these 'X' sports are no more extreme than any other sports its just one of those rediculous buzz words that people bandy around mainly for promtional purposes.

You tell Micahel SCumaher when hes doing 350 khm that hes not extreme. ..... but FOrumla One isnt at the 'X' Games I guess doing 350 khm isnt that extreme after all.

Probably a peace of piss for some punk bitch skater kid with his gay arse sticking out of his pants who would do just about anything other than get a real ****ing job ... he could drive a formula one car at 350khm easy ,cos hes EXTREME!

Gimme a break!
